Wheeling, WVA (June 17-18, 2021)

Made an overnight stop in Wheeling, WVA. At the time we were there, some serious road construction going on in that area. Can be difficult to get around. 

We stayed at the Wheeling Island Casino. It is currently due to the pandemic only open for a few days, but we really enjoyed our room. I have photos of it in the last two pictures below. I also made a trip to the arena where the Wheeling hockey team plays in a quick trip downtown.     

This photo and the three directly below are of the Wheeling Island Bridge. It was built in the mid 1800's and at the time was the largest suspension bridge in the world. It is really amazing to check out and even better because due to vehicle damage it is closed to vehicle traffic. 

I got a photo from the deck of the bridge, one of the Ohio River and one of the bridge from outside. It is really a remarkable thing to see and enjoyed it, and the stay at Wheeling Island Casino. As previously mentioned in the prior blog, a visit to Coleman's Fish Market is always worthwhile.
